Tom Petty专辑介绍：The Live Anthology is a live box set by American singer Tom Petty and is released on November 24, 2009. The album's cover was designed by Shepard Fairey. In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Petty stated he compiled live material with Mike Campbell and Ryan Ulyate from three decades of live concerts. In 2008, Ulyate began going through Petty's live archive and created an iTunes library of 170 concerts with a total of 3,509 performances of 400 unique songs. "I made sure Tom and Mike heard every song they ever did," Ulyate said, "And I ranked the concerts with a star system." Throughout his career, Tom Petty extensively documented his concerts, beginning in the late seventies. "I'm glad we did it. I think this is one of the great live rock & roll bands. And you really understand us once you've heard this set. It was a lot of fun to put together"
